You probably don’t have to worry about it, I checked the website and it’s a free file hosting website (some ppl probably uploaded their malware at one point, which is why it’s flagged)
Xylight@lemdro.idtoData is Beautiful@lemmy.world•[OC] People tried to beat the stock market 100K+ times in a simulation. They lost, a lot.English
112·2 months agofun game and fun data but the entire site is ai generated, i think you should disclose that
right, I just used window.location. I’ll fix this and also make it so that phtn.app links open in the app.
I never knew it was even possible to do line breaks in markdown any other way than double newline. Photon uses

Photon@lemdro.id•[Jul 26th 2026] Photon development updateEnglish
1·3 months agoSure, I’ll add that. The share button on posts does already include “origin server” and “your server” buttons, though I need to add this to comments.
The only web client that doesn’t use JavaScript is mlmym. the modern slopware on the web where websites pump 5 MB of scripts straight to your browser is insanity, but JavaScript can also make websites much much nicer to use (routers that don’t require full page reload).
Xylight@lemdro.idtoLemmy.ca Support / Questions@lemmy.ca•Request to remove Tesseract Front-End
41·3 months agoPhoton’s Lemmy V1 compatibility is actually pretty much complete with a lot of technical improvements as well, I’m kinda hoping the Lemmy devs release Lemmy v1 soon as I don’t really want to make a lemmy v0.x adapter

8·3 months agoit actually isnt intentional that it works fine, it’s some miracle of how i split the instance name and the username in markup. i was a little disappointed that nothing funny happened when i added that initially

5·3 months agoThere’s probably some restrictions because I tried making an instance that had a user with a completely empty username and it didn’t federate.

Jesus Christ man how do devs not even try to hide AI usage anymore. From the thumbnail alone of this article, I zoom in, and I can immediately tell it’s Gemini that made this UI. Literally the cut-and-paste style it uses. It’s getting ridiculous
